OPERATIONS

As a result of adverse market conditions, particularly on the domestic front, volumes dropped significantly both in Tube as well as Steel. In turn, lower volumes led to higher fixed costs per ton, resulting in a further erosion of margin.

During the year the Company’s focus was on containing its losses by initiating a number of cost reduction measures at its plants with a special emphasis on improving yields, reducing input costs, and reducing the PQF mill process cost.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

The business environment more particularly in the second half of the year has been the most challenging times that they have faced in the recent past. The core sectors of the Indian economy which in turn are their key consuming sectors witnessed deceleration in growth, due to policy paralysis, apart from other reasons. The domestic Seamless Tube industry was further impacted by increasing share of imports resulting from dumping. At the global front, the developed economies continue to show growth below the consensus estimates, putting further pressure on their Exports. During the year the Company posted losses for the first time since its merger in 2004.

Export sales during the year was Rs. 4120.000 Millions and accounts for over 38% of Company’s total Tube Sales. During the year the Company initiated several cost rationalization infinitives, which apart from others involved developing new vendors in the international markets. The imported raw material now accounts for 55% of Company’s total Raw Material requirement against 48% Previous Year.

EBIDTA in absolute terms during the year stood at Rs. 1715.100 Millions, impacted by under utilisation of capacities. In absence of Banking, the 40 MW Captive Power Plant was forced to run at lower PLF to match with lower power requirement of the manufacturing plants. Over 68% of Company’s power requirement was met through the Captive route.

As mentioned in the last report, the Company continues its efforts to lobby against the rising imports of seamless tubes at prices which is clearly hurting the domestic industry. Imports now accounts for over 60% of domestic consumption and has been on a rise. After aggressively pursuing, the Directorate General of Safeguards under Ministry of Finance has initiated Safeguard investigations vide its Notification dated April 22, 2013. The Company is expected to substantially benefit from levy of safeguard duty on Import of seamless tubes as and when it happens. The Company is hopeful of a positive outcome of the same.

Having created significant tube and steel capacities, the challenge during the year has been to achieve volumes and hence higher capacity utilisation. The immediate priority of the Company has been to sail through this difficult times while maintaining its quality standards and ensure that the Company retains and wins those customers that matter the most.

The 40 MW Captive Power Project was undertaken to address the rising power cost, which accounts for Company’s second biggest cost element after Raw Material. However, the denial of Banking beyond 15 minutes, has resulted into captive consumption of only 76% units generated at the 40 MW Captive Power Plant. With the fluctuating nature of power consumption involved at Company’s Steel and Tube manufacturing plants the Company is forced to sell the balance power at rate which is below its cost of generation. Further, their request for coal linkage continues to be pending for over five years now which has further aggravated the problem.

The problems in the Eurozone refusing to die down, it continued to negatively impact Company’s Overseas subsidiary Structo Hydraulics AB, Sweden.

SEGMENT / PRODUCT INFORMATION

The Company is engaged in manufacturing Seamless Tubes and Engineering Steels. Seamless Tube accounted for 73% of ISMT’s total external sales value while Steel accounted for 27% of the total Steel Billets sold, 64% of the Steel in Quantity terms was used captively to make Tubes while 36% was sold to the external market.

The Company continued with its strategy to sell value added Steel Billets to external market and outsourced commodity grade Steel Billets required for inhouse Tube manufacturing.

OUTLOOK

The overall outlook has changed to cautiously optimistic with start of commodity prices and inflation moderating. However the uncertain geopolitical and economic situation both domestically and internationally, makes us cautious. The Company is well poised to take advantage of economic upturn which has started showing early positive signs. The benefit from both, increased capacities and the Captive Power Plant is expected to gradually flow in with recovery in volumes.
